“I hate you.” Ajax mumbled as he walked out of Nicholas’ office.“If you hated me you would not have saved my life.” Nicholas yelled after him.“I should have just let Mr Thorne finish you off.” Ajax said as he rolled his eyes while the door shut behind him. He could hear Nicholas cackles in the office.Ajax had started his internship at grey’s labs and Nicholas made it his life mission to rub it in his face that he, Ajax, loved him very much.Ajax regretted ever saving him.Sometimes, he asked himself why he saved Nicholas, his sworn enemy. He never seemed to know why.Actually, he knew in his subconscious but he was never going to agree to it.The spring term/ semester had resumed and Ajax had finally returned to school.He was nervous on his way back. He didn’t know how to face Raphael nor Elena.He felt nostalgic when he opened the door of his dorm. Raphael w

“What?” Natasha asked, confusion evident on her face.“Don’t play dumb with me.” He sneered as he advanced slowly towards her.“What do you mean!” Natasha asked, eyes wide with fear and taking a step back away from him.“You have her bracelet that looks ripped or cut. Probably from a struggle. You have scratch marks too and you are on edge.” Ajax said his voice rising.“Well.” Natasha deadpanned as she regained her composure. “I have no idea where she is.” She said. “And these marks have nothing to do with Elena, so excuse me, I have to go.” She concluded and walked away.Ajax lunched forward and grabbed her hands to stop her from leaving.Natasha stopped abruptly, eyes flickering from his face to his fingers gripping hers.“Please Natasha. Where is Elena.” Ajax pleaded. Hoping that maybe if he approached her softly, she would perhaps answer him.“Let. Me. Go.” She sneered at him. “I have no idea where you Elena is. And I have to go.”He glared at

“Hey Tasha.” Raphael said beaming with a boyish cocky grin. That grin that did things to her. It was one of her weaknesses. “Are you going to invite me in or..” he said after a long silence in which Natasha just stared at him.Natasha turned crimson with a smile and pulled back away, giving him space to come in.Raphael smirked cockily.As he stepped in, Ajax appeared from his hiding and followed behind him.Natasha’s jaw fell open in surprise. Her countenance also fell and she stared at Raphael unbelievably.“Raphael? Why is he here?” Natasha asked, a frown forming a crease in her forehead.Raphael smiled at her again, then his smile fell and turned into one of worry. “Are you okay?” He asked, concern seeping into his voice.She nodded at him and walked to her own bed.Ajax eyes scanned the room. It looked just like his own room at the dorm. Two beds at the opposite sides with a door leading to the bathroom. Ajax used to think she had two room mates, which meant it was a triple dorm.

“Stay here.” Ajax whispered to the duo. Natasha and Raphael had accompanied him to Caroline’s house. It was already night when they got to the house.It was conveniently not far from the college. He wasn’t surprised because Caroline had to stay close to school since she could not get dorms.“And miss out all the fun?” Raphael said shaking his head in disagreement.“I’m serious Raph.” Ajax chided. An emotion similar to fear flashed in his eyes as he glanced around, hoping they were safe. “This dude is dangerous. And I don’t mean high school boys dangerous, I mean Like lethal and evil villain kind of dangerous. So, please just Stay here with your girl. I can’t be trying to save myself and Elena with you and Natasha.”“We should listen to him Raph.” Natasha whispered tugging Raphael, fear evident in her eyes.Raphael rolled his eyes at him but nevertheless, he agreed.“Once you hear my signal, come in.

Thunder crackled in the distance as the clouds grew bright with lightning which lasted for a split second. That split second was enough for him to see clearly that it was Elena.And the look on her face was heart breaking. It took a while before it dawned on him that Elena just saw him kissing another girl.Elena had a huge rain boots on with an umbrella and a coat, but as she saw him, the umbrella fell off her hands, while the rain poured heavily on her without mercy.She could taste salt and she wondered at the back of her mind if it was her tears or the rain was salty.That was not her main cause of worry at the moment. All that matters was that she felt like though someone has slammed their hands through her chest with a chainsaw and drove it in as it sliced through her heart, cutting it painfully, the machine whirling without mercy.She choked back a sob and turned on her heels. She wasn’t going to let him see her breakdown.“Elena wait!” Ajax called out to her but that was wh

He gave them specific instructions on it.Ajax rolled his eyes. “I think he would love it if you let him shit in your mouth by.”Raphael gasped in horror. “That’s insane!” His face morphed into one of determination. “But I would let him gladly.

First she smiled at him, her gaze soft. But it was just for a fleeting moment.A fleeting moment in which her memories of the day and night came rushing back like as though the flood gate holding it was pushed open. Her eyes widened. Her expression was torn between fear, anger, disappointment, confusion and something Ajax could not quite decipher.With tears stinging her eyes, the soft look she had totally disappearing, She flinched back, trying her best to keep her distance from him.“Elena-“ he started before she cut him off.“Where the hell am I?” Her eyes looked around the unfamiliar room in total unrecognition“You are in my home. You collapsed.” Ajax said in the softest voice he could ever muster. Hoping it would lighten the tension and nervousness she felt.“I collapsed?” She asked disbelieving.“Yeah, when you puked, you vomited.” Ajax exclaimed in details.“Oh, I have to go.” She murmured to herself as she attempted to stand up but s She winced, her hands holding her head a

Lectures had begun and learning was in going in full force. As every usual day, Ajax would return from lectures and spend his time in his dorm, either playing games or in a conversation with Raphael. Most of the time he was reading. Even though he was about a month ahead, he still read. His grades showed for it. He was the best in his level with a CGPA of 4.99.“Ajax.” Raphael said as he rushed in.Ajax tensed, heart race increasing at the sudden burst in.“Guess what! There is this frat party holding. It is for seniors but I got a way we can go in.” Raphael said rather cheery than usual.Ajax rolled his eyes at him and fixated his eyes back on his computer.Raphael frowned and marched to his bed and slapped the laptop closed.“Bro! Come on!” Ajax exclaimed.“Bro. Come on.” Raphael repeated mimicking Ajax’s voice. He sighed then continued. “For real though, it would be fun. Don’t you think we deserve a little bit of fun.” He said, whining.“Seriously Raphael, I’ll pass. I got a lot

Secondly, they heard screams of people, the scent of blood heavy in the air.Thirdly,YOU HAVE FEW HOURS LEFT.It all started from the party.***“Bro, come on.” Raphael said in a duh tone. “You can’t fool me. You are hiding something, which I don’t give a shit about.” He headed back to his corner. “And I have no idea of what party is going to be like. I just know it would be fun.”Ajax sighed.“But, from my reliable sources, it might be a pool party too.” Raphael added.Ajax’s features turned into one of surprise and horror. After that particular horrific event in which Raphael left him to drown in the water at the beach, he now had a phobia for water.“Did I ever say I was going to join you for a party?” Ajax asked, his expression seriously quizzical.Raphael chuckled.“I really don’t feel too good Ralph, maybe so

HORROR. TRAUMATIZED
A weak smile graced his features as he walked through it.His eyes flipped open and he saw himself sprawled out across the floor with his hands still reaching out and holding Raphael by the chains.He felt pain in every muscle but slowly the pain began to subside. As it subsided, strength came in. When he was strong enough, he snapped the chains apart and they broke, freeing Raphael.Raphael looked at him with a mixture of worry, sadness and some thing along the lines of love. “Are you okay?” Raphael asked as he quickly freed himself from the chains and rushed up to Ajax.He cupped his face and wiped away something from his eyes.Ajax had no idea he was even tearing up. He lifted his hands to wipe his own tears. That was when he saw that he was crying tears.His eyes flickered to the reflection of himself in a mirror not so far away. He gasped as he saw the trail of blood that ran from his eyes, down to his cheeks. His ears too had the trail of blood. His nose and mouth were not left o

ANOTHER MORNING IN CHAINS
THE following morning, Ajax woke up to an empty bed. He opened his eyes and the clock hanging just in front of him showed that it was noon.“Okay.” He murmured. “I think something is definitely wrong. How does one sleep till twelve in the afternoon.” He could hear the sound of water rushing from a door situated on the left side of the wall. He figured that it was the bathroom and that Elena was probably having her bath.He tried sitting up and that was when he noticed that he was tied down. He frowned but then the frown was replaced with a knowing smile. “Elena.” He called. “Are you trying to molest me?”There was no reply. He chuc kled and threw his head back on the bed as he sat waiting for her to come.About three minutes had gone by.“Who pays the water bill for this place?” Ajax wondered out loud. “You use a really lot of water.”Five minutes had gone by by and he frowned. That was odd. Elena never took that long to bath. He listened carefully and that was when he heard it. The s

A STEAMY NIGHT
Raphael and Elena huddled around him quickly. “Oh my God.” The two off them chorused repeating his words.“What are you going to do?” Elena asked looking up at him.“I have no clue.” Ajax answered, his heart racing. The call ended.“Give me that.” Raphael said grabbing it from Ajax’s hands. He turned it off and placed it in his pocket. “There.” He said smiling. “Problem solved.”***Nicholas had been calling Ajax all day. His workers back at Grey’s labs had been able to created more strips following Ajax’s parents experiment and methods.They had brought wears for safety and protection in preparation for the battle/ fight.Nicholas also got tiny tracking devices to fix on any of the people so that they could track them back to their abode.***“The place is not bad.” Raphael said as soon as they got in. “Our place is better, but it’s better than the dorms in school.”Ajax could not agree more. It looked like Caroline’s apartment back when she was dating Nate.The sitting room. Two roo

RUBBING SHOULDERS WITH THE ENEMY
Ajax’s eyes scrutinized him. Now that was a lie. A big fat one. He was definitely going to keep it for himself. Now he was slowly beginning to see what Caroline was seeing.“That way, we live without fear of anything in and around our city.” Gregory added.“I would go with you on the day of the mission. I am doing this not just because I want my freedom for mainly for my love for Elena.” Ajax stated firmly. His eyes glanced at Elena who was sitting and watching them. The love and willingness to fight filled his eyes. “We stick together right?”Elena could not help the smile creeping up her face. She nodded at him. “Yes we do.”“This would be weird though.” Raphael said scratching his head. “Fighting against the people I have always loved and adored, But I am in too.”Gregory chuckled. “First of all, I really admire your willingness to join us. I really appreciate, but I am sorry you would not have to do that.”“What?” Raphael said frowning. His friends; Elena and Ajax had the sam

MEETING WITH GREGORY
First it was the Ray of sunlight that hit his eyes. It woke him up, but he did not open his eyes. He laid there for a while. Suddenly, a shadow crossed, shielding the sun away from his eyes.He slowly opened his eyes and met Elena’s brown ones.“Hey.” Ajax mumbled in his groggy night voice.“Good afternoon.” She greeted with a smile.He frowned. “Afternoon?”That was when he saw the red lipstick on her lips and her eyelashes coated in mascara with a wing liner. His eyebrows knitted deeper. She was convered in make up. Was it really not morning?He tried getting up, but Elena was on him keeping him down.“Yas.” She said as she sat up, giving him his personal space. “You have been sleeping till almost three o’clock in the afternoon.” Elena pointed out.He sat up and grabbed his watch from the drawer close to their bed. His eyes grew wide. “What? How!” He exclaimed in disbelief.“You must have been really stressed out these couple days. Have you even been sleeping?” Elena asked as she cl

ATTACK IN THE QUARTERS
She could not see the person doing it. The person blended with the darkness. She hurried towards Raphael. “Are you okay?” She whispered as she helped him up. She pulled him behind her as she enhanced her eye sight so that she could see clearly in the night.She could make out three figures. Two men and a woman. They were hiding at strategic positions.Raphael’s heart was racing erratically as he stood behind Elena. He could see barely nothing in this darkness.He glanced at Ajax. Ajax who was still dressed in his white shirt and corporate pants was crouched.Suddenly, Ajax flung his hands in the air and a figure fell to the floor, landing a little distance from Raphael. Raphael gasped in surprise.Ajax was very alert. He had no idea who their attackers were. These were one of those times he was happy that his girlfriend also had a system. She was a strong girl and could fend off these people on her own, but he could not help but still worry for her.His eyes turned to check up on

IN THE QUARTERS
“Damn bro.” Raphael said smiling and patting Ajax’s back in pride. “You are one smart ass.”Ajax threw him a smile. “Of course I am.”The two continued walking. In the dark lonely street.It was late and people had gone to bed. There was not a single soul in sight. The two young boys had fallen silent that was when they felt the cold bite of the chill wind.“Uh.. so what are.. where are we going?” Raphael said rubbing his hands against his body to create heat.“I have no idea man. I am just walking.” Ajax said turning to Raphael.The two tried to hold a serious expression but failed and ended up laughing hysterically.“Hold up.” Ajax said stopping. “Let me try Elena. Maybe she would lead us to where she is.”***Elena had gotten to the quarters, her eyes red and face covered with dried tears. She had walked all the way to the place with a heavy heart and tears spilling down her eyes till there was no tears left to cry.How did she get here? How did her sweet relationship with Ajax

THE ULTIMATE CHOICE
Elena got to the stairs and stopped. She looked back at Ajax. He was not making even the slightest move to even chase after her. It broke her heart to say the least. Was he actually choosing Nicholas and Caroline over her? Her eyes flickered to Caroline who stood at a corner. She glanced at Raphael. He shook his head at her with his expression torn between worry, disappointment, sadness and betrayal.She turned to Ajax, he still stood with shock. She could see the little pool of tears gathering in his eyes.Her heart was breaking. Was he actually not coming after her. Her vision began to get blurred as the tears that was in her eyes threatened to fall.She spun around and ran up the stairs into her room and shut the door behind her. Her breathing ragged she took in deep breaths to calm herself.Slowly the reality of everything that just happened began to dawn on her. Ajax had just chosen Caroline and Nicolas over her.She had just lost him. She had lost Ajax. Her lips parted in d

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
Ajax, Caroline and Raphael turned around and saw Elena standing and watching them with a frown.Tension and silence descended amidst them, making the atmosphere thick. “Oh hi.” Caroline greeted with a cheerful smile, her voice light as a squeak.Suddenly, she felt a flurry of wind hit her as she saw a blur of white and then Elena was tackled into a hug.She gasped at the sudden movement. Was that how much he missed her? She could not help but smile at the duo. No, she did not feel any atom of jealousy. She had fully gotten over Ajax that she could not see him in such light anymore.As for Ajax, all he did was listen to Caroline tell the story of Elena when he heard the soft voice he had been craving to hear for days now.The sight of her felt like he had been in a dark room for a really long and was finally let out to see the light.Although his girl had frown lines on her head with a scowl and eye bags that showed that she had not been sleeping and how stressed she had been, yet she
